The bill appropriates funds for public infrastructure and a child care center in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. Specifically, it allocates $3,000,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development for a grant to the city of Brooklyn Center. This funding is designated for the predesign, design, site preparation, construction, and equipping of public infrastructure to serve the Opportunity Site, which includes utility improvements, stormwater management, road construction, and public parking. Additionally, the bill authorizes the sale and issuance of state bonds to finance this appropriation.
Furthermore, the bill appropriates $2,000,000 from the general fund for fiscal year 2025 to Faith Community Development for the establishment of a 24-hour child care center on the Opportunity Site. This grant is contingent upon the completion of the public infrastructure project and is subject to specific statutory provisions regarding fund cancellation. Both sections of the bill will take effect the day following final enactment.
